Hello... Is anyone out there? At the risk of looking/sounding ignorant, I just can't seem to find my way around this forum site. Whatever I pull up is dated 2007 or 2011... I am not computer illiterate - overstressed, maybe... what am I doing wrong?

Ladydiyo,

If you look at the top right hand corner of this page, click to word search, when that page opens up put in the search bar a word I used "Infection" and the way mine is set the latest come up first but if you go to the bottom you can click on last number, mine said 33 and when I did it took me back to 2007 posts, so I am hoping for you it will do the same , I hope that helps !

Re: Newbie to LBD Forum Page

I do view new posts and work from there. I like that I can also search on terms, but be careful because it'll give you a lot of info (but will highlight your search term within the body of the paragraphs you're looking at). Hope this helps

Re: Newbie to LBD Forum Page

PS--sometimes you might catch yourself looking at the date joined instead of the posting. And, remember to go to the last page of a discussion since replies are appended by default (but there's always so much good information within the threads too). Take care & deep breaths. Some days nothing will go right, others will come more easily and you'll be able to handle more. You are doing your bestt.

Re: Newbie to LBD Forum Page

Welcome ladydio - the forum has been a little quiet lately, but there are many of us out here willing to help you. I, myself, check in every few days when things are quiet on the forum and usually every few hours when there are lots of CGs out there who need to "talk". If you post questions in the most appropriate topic areas you'll tend to get answers more quickly.

You may want to write a brief intro. to you and your situation in the Intro. section, too! We're here for you, have no fears! Lynn
